Mascot

The school's mascot is the Granger.[2] In France, it is common to use the term "la grange" to indicate a farm, as barns are a common feature. The French term "grange" (with an anglicized pronunciation) came also to be used colloquially as a name for a farm, and later a granger became a term for a farmer, with this use most commonly in the American North and Midwest. The school, however, has never officially used the term "Granger" to indicate or describe the mascot as a farmer.

Athletics

LaGrange High has produced professional athletes such as Mike Cameron, Dernell Stenson, Tony Stargell, Tyrone Poole, and Wesley Woodyard. Sports offered are tennis, football, cross-country, track and field, cheerleading, basketball, golf, gymnastics, soccer, softball, swimming, volleyball, wrestling, and baseball.

The baseball team had one state championship in 2004.[3][4]

LaGrange High School football

The LaGrange football team has had 65 years of winning seasons since 1919. They have won many championship titles - 19-time region champions, 11-time state champions, and 1-time winner of the USA Today National Championship in 1991. The independently maintained lagrangefootball.com[5] has nearly six hours of video highlights.

As of the 2011 season the Grangers have a win-loss record of 598–277-26. After the 1991 season, the Grangers received the title of the number one team in the nation as ranked by USA Today. Since 1919 there has yet to be a losing coach to come through this program, except for the current coach Dialleo Burks who has the worst record in school history as a head coach; his current record at the program is 12-29.[6]

LaGrange vs. Newnan

The rivalry between the Grangers and the Newnan High Cougars goes back to at least 1908. The Grangers lead the rivalry 49-30-4. In 2005 the Grangers were defeated by Newnan High School to end a 29-game win streak which is the longest in school history. Newnan has grasped three meetings in a row up through the 2009 season. In 2004 the Grangers opened up with the old-time rivals for the first time since 1999. The preseason ranked #1 in 3A Grangers defeated the 5A preseason ranked #2 Cougars 35-7, to start off their undefeated state championship season in 2004. "The ‘04 LaGrange team ranked in the Top-25 of five national polls at season’s end and as high as No. 9 in one poll with one of the finest teams in school history."[6]
